RESIDENTIAL STATUS AND TAX LIABILITIES The tax liability under income tax is determined on the basis of residential status of an assessee but not according to the citizenship hence it becomes necessary that firstly the residential status of an assessee should be determined. On the basis of residential status there are 3 categories of assessees:

1) Resident/Ordinary resident 2) Not ordinarily resident 3) Non resident

There are separate rules for different types of assessee like; individual, H.U.F., firm, companies etc. for determination of residential status.

Individual Assessee 1) Resident / Ordinary Resident : - If an individual wants to become resident in India, then he has

to fulfill the basic condition as well as two additional conditions: i) Basic conditions: In the basic conditions, there are two conditions. On satisfying any one of these, it will be assumed that the basic condition is satisfied.

a) The assessee must have lived for at least 182 days in India during the previous year.

OR b) The assessee must have lived for at least 365 days in 4 years preceding the

previous year and at least 60days in 4 years preceding the previous year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE BASIC CONDITIONS 1. If an assessee is an India citizen and goes aboard for the employment purpose or leaves the

country as a member of crew of an Indian ship. 2. If an assessee is an Indian citizen or an Indian origin, living in a foreign country and comes to

India on tour during the previous year. In both these exceptional cases an assessee has to lives for at least 182 days for satisfying the basic condition.

ii) Additional Conditions There are two additional conditions and assessee has to satisfy both of these conditions. These are :

i) An assessee must have been assessed as resident for at least 2 out of 10 years preceding the previous year.

AND ii) An assessee must have lived for at least 730 days out of 7 year proceeding the

previous years. Thus on satisfying any of the two basic conditions and two additional conditions an individual assessee can be termed as “ordinary resident”.

2) Not Ordinarily Resident: If an assessee satisfies the basic condition but fails to satisfy the two additional conditions, then he will be assessed as “not ordinarily resident”.

3) Non Resident: If an assessee fails to satisfy even the basic condition, then he will be assessed or” non resident”.

AND b) “Karta” of the HUF satisfies the two additional conditions.

RESIDENTIAL STATUS AND TAX INCIDENCE (LIABILITIES) Tax liability of an assessee depends upon the residential status on which income he is liable to pay tax and which incomes are not taxable for him, for determination of this matter, now we have to understand the relationship between residence and tax liabilities :

b) Tax liability of Not ordinarily resident: i) Income received or deemed to be received in India. ii) Income occurred or deemed to be accrued in India. iii) Income business situated outside India but controlled and managed from India

While doing valuation in this case, actual rent will be calculated of the whole house for the let-out period only. But, fair-rent and municipal-valuation will be taken for the whole year

Rules regarding valuation: 1. Gross Annual Value (G.A.V.)/Actual Rental Value

It is been calculated on 2 basis: (a) Self-occupied house: NIL (b) Let-out house: i. If the house is not covered under Rent control Act:

Whichever is higher

ii. If the house is covered under Rent control Act: Whichever is higher -------------

Whichever is less Whichever is higher -------------- NOTES:

1. If the let-out house has remained vacant fro some period during the previous year, then actual rent for such vacancy period will be deducted in the calculation of gross annual value.

2. If amount of approved unrealized rent is given in the question then such amount will also be deducted in the calculation of G.A.V.

3. If owner of the house has provided some facilities to the tenant, free of cost as per agreement or Rent-deed during the previous year, then the value of such facilities firstly be deducted from the rent received and remaining actual rent will be compared with other rents.

4. If an assessee has kept more than one house for his own residence, then only one house will be valued as self-occupied house and other self-residential houses will be valued as “deemed to be rental”.

2. Municipal Taxes/ Local Taxes: Municipal taxes are deducted on “Payment Basis”. It means that the whole amount of taxes paid during the previous year 2016-17 will be fully deductible, doesn’t matter to which year they belongs to. To get the deduction of these taxes, it is necessary that the assessee should fulfill the following 2 conditions:

a. Taxes must be paid by the owner only. 3. Taxes must be paid on or before last day of the previous year 4. Standard Deduction: 30% of Net Annual Value 5. Interest on Loan:

Deduction of interest on loan is allowed only when the amount of loan is utilized for purchasing, constructing or repairs or renewal of the house. Deduction of interest of loan is given in 2 parts:

I. Amount of interest due during the previous year II. 1/5th of interest for construction period.

Construction period will be calculated from the date of taking loan upto 31st March immediately preceding the date of completion of construction of house. Deduction of interest on loan will be allowed as under:

a. Let-out house: The whole amount of interest will be deductible. b. Self-Residential house:

Maximum Rs. 30,000 or Rs. 2,00,000 (Whichever is less).

NOTE: If loan is taken before April 1st, 1999, then maximum deductible amount will be Rs. 30,000 otherwise it will be Rs. 2,00,000 If the loan is taken for repairs or renewal of the house, then in each case maximum deductible amount will be Rs. 30,000 More than one house/houses for self residence – Where the person has occupied more than one house for his own residential purposes, only one house (according to his own choice) is treated as self-occupied and all other houses will be deemed to be let out. Except one house (on the choice of the assessee) remaining house or houses will be computed as let out. So, annual value of such deemed let house/houses is determined u/s 23(1) (a) on the basis of reasonable expected rent and entitled for the deduction of municipal taxes, standard deduction (30% of NAV) and interest on loan like out property. Only one house owned and kept vacant – Section 23 (2) (b) In the case of an assessee who owns only one house property which is kept vacant as he has to reside at some other place in a building not belonging to him due to his employment, profession or business, the annual value will be taken as nil. Deduction u/s 24 shall be allowed only in respect of interest on loan borrowed upto Rs. 30000. Where the property is acquired or constructed out of loan borrowed on or after 1-4-99, interest in respect of such property shall be allowed upto Rs. 1.5 Lacs. House acquired or transferred during the year If the house is acquired or completed during the year then annual rental value will be determined from the date of completion or acquisition to 31st March. For example a house is completed on 1.8.2011 and let out. In this situation the annual rental value will be computed for 8 months (1.8.2011 to 31.3.2012). On the contrary a house which is sold or transferred during the year, will be valued from 1st April to date of transfer. Rent received after deduction of Tax If the assessee lets out his property to a company or firm or trust or bank etc. (other than Individual or H.U.F.) and gross annual rent is more than Rs. 180000 then the tenant would pay rent after deduction of tax @10%. In such position at the time of determination of annual rental value gross rent should be kept in view instead of net rent. If the net rent is given then it will be grossed up as under:-

Net Rent x 100 90

Recovery of Unrealized rent – Sec. 25A & 25AA If the assessee has claimed deduction for unrealized rent in preceding year (before previous year) and subsequently realized or recovered any such amount during the previous year, then it will be taxable and included in the income from house property.
